There’s not a hotel garage in the world that plays host to as many extraordinary automobiles as that of the Grand Hotel Villa d’Este during the Concorso d’Eleganza weekend. Our photographer Rémi Dargegen took a midnight peek into the world’s most exclusive car park…
By day, they are carefully maneuvered into place on the immaculate hotel lawns. By night, however, the ultra-valuable classics that make up the Concorso field are casually left in the hotel car park. While their owners swapped stories in the bar upstairs, our roving photographer Rémi Dargegen went ‘underground’ – and here are his truly fascinating photos of the concours stars at rest, the night before the big finale. When was the last time you parked between an Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato and a Porsche 550 Spyder?
